ill just begin with your probably too young to remember this but...
in the pre-hippie but contemporaneous with mod and the surf look, the ivy league look was self enforced very strictly in south miami elementary school. burlington gold cup socks (or no socks), tan or navy chinos or levi cord jeans and an oxford shirt (preferably gant). bass wejun penny loafers or tassel version and a cantabury leather belt. or you were ridiculed untill you died. the gants were from mississippi but were following the back east ivy league look too. that book nail it for sure. we didnt wear our madras shorts that damn tight though i assure you. and fyi: the beachboys were originally named the pendletones after the wool shirts.
